i just dont know cause right now i ride solomon 1080's and there 80mm underfoot and thats obviously fine. this will be my fist 'fat' ski and im looking at the S6, i talked to the Rossi rep and he seems to think it will be fine but i dont know if he just wants me to go rossi. ill be using the ski for 70% all mountain and 30% park. Will this ski be  good everyday of the year?

Why do you want a really wide ski anyway if you aren't doing powder?

no ski is too wide for groomers, you can make it down a groomer on the fattest of skis
i rode jj's on groomers regularly last year

if you're looking for groomer performance, get something pretty traditional and not too fat, exactly like the s6. something like a bacon or obsethed is the kind of ski that does great on groomers also and the s6 is pretty similar so yes, it will do fine
